Description
Inspired by the work of the Small Steps Charity UK who provide emergency aid, shoes and food to children and communities living on municipal rubbish dumps around the world. They also provide support for children to take steps into education and adults into employment.
This work is based on a photograph of Pata Rat which is 10km downtown from Cluj in Romania. There are over 1500 people living on this 18 hectare dumpsite. 356 families were forcibly evicted from their homes to this area.
Now part of my 'Trash to Treasure' series, this abstract shows a large landfill where the sky is almost as full of birds as the ground is filled with trash. Any profits from sales will be donated to Small Steps Project.
